Not really. You can even go up to 8cm.

Yes. You look like a tibia LL vet already. Do femurs.

Wouldnt my torso then look even shorter because I've heard that long femurs make your torso look shorter.

Kinda depends on how tall you are. If you’re 5’9” with these proportions you’ll look fine at 6’0. If you’re 5’4” you might be limited in how much you can hide. But I would definitely consider femurs only.
You don’t look freakish or anything so I doubt 5cm femurs would look bad. You could probably do 8cm if you’re not really short already.

You can actually hide long femurs better by wearing pants an inch lower. This makes your torso actually look longer.

I already wear pants lower rise(this photos) because my torso is short.If I wear pants on high rise ,I look like I have no torso.

If you have a goal of 4cm increase, you’ll look fine. I would just do it in the femurs and not your tibias. 4cm in the femurs is a pretty small operation and you’ll recover fantastically. Probably as if you never had LL.

Actually I saw now that tibia to femur ratio should be 0.80 and mine is now 0.88 so if I would do 4cm in femurs it would be 0.81

Sounds like you have your answer then! :) You’re an ideal femur patient. You have long legs so I wouldn’t go much past 4cm, you could probably get to 5cm without looking super long legged. You’ll be over 5’9” then with longish legs, which will probably give you the appearance of looking taller. Based on proportions you could then probably claim 5’10 or 5’11 in social contexts, if you want to.
If you feel the need to get to 8cm you’ll still look fine because your arms are long enough.

No,I wont go further than 4 cm because I have scoliosis so after scoliosis surgery which I must do I will gain additional inch or 3 cm.

I measured my inseam and I have already 81 cm inseam.If I do 4cm in femurs would it still look acceptable?

What the heck!? Are you only 5'7 !? I swear to god when I clicked on your imgur pic I instantly thought you were a 6'3 guy tryna get more height. Your tibias are very good. Can pull 5-6 cm on femurs (probably)
Insane proportions mate, regards

Actually I am 5'8 but I have low eye level so I feel myself as 5'7.Yeah my inseam is similar like those 5'10 and 5'11 that s why I look taller.

The photo is distorted because it has been taken from low.

You look as normal as anyone else on this page. If you can afford internal femurs, do the maximum you safely can and be done with this.

I dont know I have to wear child clothes for 13 year old at 5'8 because small shirts for grown ups are too long for me and I can easily wear 32 inch pants now that s why I dont know If Im going to look weird.
-
Honestly I think you would look normal with an 8 cm increase. I wouldn’t worry about it too much just get your desired height and be done with it. I wouldn’t recommend tucking in your pants or wearing your pants higher because they make your legs look longer.

Yes it probably will look weird when your only in underwear but in clothes you should be fine. I would just lengthen and observe your proportions in the mirror with different clothes and see wether it looks off to you.
-
Your limbs are indeed very long, probably even more accentuated due to you being pretty skinny, how much do you weigh at 5'7,5? A good thing is your arms are also long though.
For reference I'm 1 inch shorter than you and weigh 61kg and you look much taller than me

Yes I am 172 cm it is almost 5'8 but I have long head and I have 56 kilograms.Do you think I can still manage to lengthen 4 cm in femurs because my tibias are long.I will look maybe like these people here http://imgur.com/a/TTeEbUE.

You look healthy and ok Brother, great proportions too, but I reckon you might look even better (and hit a lil harder) with another 8 kg of muscle.

I was 59 kg two years ago after a vegan diet, This is me now (maybe a little fat , but its a cold winter here atm) at 54 yo, 68 kg, 179 cm (i was 171 cm), I am a hard gainer, only way I can put on muscle is heavy weight and plenty of chicken and ice cream. It has been my experience that Girls (at least in Australia) prefer a lil more meat (just my opinion).

If you did 4cm femurs and 3cm from scoliosis surgery it would look about the same as now but taller. If you are doing both I would cease to worry about proportion issues.

Yeah,but I would do first leg lengthening and scoliosis after 2 years so thats why I ask would I look acceptable with those 4 cm.
Also I have 0.90 ratio tibia and femurs.With 4 cm on femurs I would have 0.80 ratio what is perfect ratio that anyone could have.

Yeah I would definetely look better with 8 kilos of muscles but I would like to lengthen too because here in Dinarids 186 cm is average and in younger generations like me every third men is over 190 cm.Also girls are on average around 175 cm here.
There is also huge difference between north and south of Croatia.In North men are on average 180 cm and girls 166 cm.Dinarids are like some superior race I dont know how to explain it.I just feel intimidated when everyone around me is around 190 cm and I am around 173cm,children at 13 years are here around 180 cm.

Also this is how would I look with 4 cm tibias is that looks weird would I look same with femurs because I already have very short torso and long legs in beggining.
